LH Labs Geek Out v2 Discussion Thread

[NinjaHamster]

I’m having trouble getting a response from support at this very moment...

Is there a link to the directions on how to install firmware 2.1?

Thanks that helps.

Does line out work for both unbalanced and balanced connections?

It should work on both, yes.

Balanced line-out is slightly more complicated, you have to tap the SE ground, I believe.

There's documentation on this somewhere

You have to use two cables for balanced. A 3.5mm TRRS to 2 XLR cable for balanced main signal and a 3.5mm TRS to 2 RCA cable for ground. Plug both cables in and choose balanced input on external amp.
For singled ended, all you need is 3.5mm TRS to 2 RCA and choose single ended input on external amp.

I think this is the clearest anyone has ever made it.

What if your amp only has XLR input (and provided adaptors for XLR to RCA)?

Can someone post the Geek Out 2A 2.1 firmware? LH Labs Support isn't responding...

 

[rigo]

So I can't find the post, but there was something about not having volume control when using 2.1. That volume can only be controlled from the GO2PRO /Geek Out?

Yes, Windows & driver volume control is gone. You can only control volume via device or software.

I thought this was fixed from 2.0 to 2.1? No volume control keys are super inconvenient.
